Learning more about me

no working out today, I want to rest my ankle a little more.  I'm happy I'm losing, but I also want it to heal. 

I'm visiting my parents today and Goal is to try and stay low carb while I'm there.  hanging out after, no real issue there. I have to drive so I don't drink.

So Yesterday was friday and I realized I do alot of emotional eating on friday. One, I think its the end of the week so i get to treat myself and the treat is usually food.  Instead I went to whole foods and finally discovered a place to by the peppers I've been looking for (habanero and Serrano).  Its a different form of retail therapy but its worked.  On my way home I hate coming home to an empty house and no plans so I think I do some comfort food eating.  I was hungry when I left work so I had to small bags of doritos (300cal total ) and when I got home to low fat puddings.  not great, but better than the fast food I would have eaten.

Also Tue and thur are my early days at work so I usually have egg white omelet with low sugar ketchup, wheat toast and an ice coffee with creamer. Alot of this is habit.  This week the goal is to give up the bread.  On the weekend I have gotten inthe habit of putting something on my veggie omlete and really i make it good enough it doesn't need anything. So no more smothering my food unless needed.

Well this week end been a little wacky. I didn't eat anything I planned to eat. I didn't over eat and I think I made good choices all week. I only exercised once this week which I'm not entirely happy with, but I'm ok with that too. Back at it tomorrow (Saturday). So anyway. I know I haven't had the big 3-4 weight loss I had been having so I jumped on the scale. I'm down a pound( to 333) . Its nice because I haven't gained, but I would like to be firmly in the 320s by the end of the month. I have managed to stick to my lent goals with the exception of the 2 beef meals I've had. I will admit Applebees has been calling and it was rough avoiding the scallops with bacon but I'm ok. Funny who I can ignore the Ben and Jerry's and not the scallops. I wonder if it will get easier. Happy that I am not forming any new attachments with food. I do have a craving for hooter, but I think their salads (if you can call it that, more like salad dressi...

Reading through my Blog/ Learning more about me

So I was looking for distraction from the vending machine monster and I found a 100 calorie snack ( i need to start carrying those again) and realized I was 312 lbs back in April. :-(, but I think the good thing is I am back at 312 and will soon be lower. I also learned spring and summer are bad times for me and I need to learn to modify my exercise plan during the summer. I think I felt like if I didn't feel like working out I couldn't do anything. I should have done maybe 30 min or something...We'll see I also noticed I am slightly scale obsessed, but like I posted before the scale has been who I judge myself and right now I WANT to be under 300lbs. So between the 100 cal snack and reading 3fc and the blog I am ok. Now home to a bowl full of mixed vegetables ( lol and I am actually looking forward to it)

Repeating Mistakes/ To fibit not to fitbit

LOL once I start blogging I can't stop. So I'm in the exercise groove...I've been here before..the weight is coming off.  I'm eating right, feeling good..and then...I do too much, get frustrated and binge and then quit...sigh So I started posting on 3 fat chicks again.  I felt like I need an outlet for things I was feeling without judgement and I like reading about other people struggles so I don't feel alone.  I am avoiding any challenges and any group posts.  The posts where everyone already knows everyone so you post but no one responds because they don't really know you...blah... The reality is I don't do well on challenges and it stops becoming about weight loss and feeling good and more about "winning" nothing..because there is no actual prize.  If I win yeah..but often I "lose" and feel bad and then begins a downward spiral into feeling like a failure.  Weirdly this is also the reason I never got into counting carbs or cal...
